An Occasional Man - Sarah Vaughan
I've got an island in the pacific
And everything about it is terrific
I've got the sun to tan me
Palms to fan me
And an occasional man
I love my island it's very lazy
If I should ever leave it I'd be crazy
I've got papayas peaches
Sandy beaches
And an occasional man
When I go swimmin'
I am always dressed in style
'Cause I go swimmin'
Wearin' just a great big smile
My little island was made for pleasure
And in the cool of evening it's a treasure
And when the hour grows later
What is greater
Than an occasional man
My little island is such a beauty
You may forget to heed the call of duty
But if you give the slip
Take your ship
Miss the trip
Take a tip
And blame
An occasional dame
